A Reciprocating Pump converts the mechanical energy into pressure energy by sucking the liquid into a cylinder, in which a piston is reciprocating. It uses piston or plunger to positively displace the liquid during each stroke of the piston.
RECIPROCATING PUMPS
Principle
A Reciprocating Pump converts the mechanical
energy into pressure energy by sucking the liquid into a cylinder, in which a
piston is reciprocating. It uses piston or plunger to positively displace the
liquid during each stroke of the piston. The piston is moving backwards and
forwards (i.e., to and fro), exerting a thrust on the liquid, thereby
increasing its pressure energy.
Due
to a number of sliding parts, greater attention for lubrication, maintenance
and repairs is required.
The
reciprocating pumps may be classified as:
• According to the Contact of Liquid with One
Side or Both Sides of the Piston
1.
Single Acting Reciprocating Pump
2.
Double Acting Reciprocating Pump
• According to the
Number of Cylinders
1.
Single Cylinder Reciprocating Pump
2.
Double Cylinder Reciprocating Pump
